We come to God’s word with a sense of wonder and anticipation, knowing that we see Christ most clearly in it. We crave Bible teaching which goes through the heart and draws us to him.
Our values
Our values shape who we are, impacting what we do and how we do it. Over and above everything is Christ. We fully depend on him, seek to be like him, and do everything to make him known for his glory and our joy.
Generous unity in Christ
We are as narrow as the gospel demands, and as generous as the gospel compels us to be, knowing that Christian believers are “All one in Christ Jesus.” We treasure unity in our diversity, always speaking well of each other.
Humble dependence in prayer
We rejoice in our frailty and finiteness, unashamed to be completely dependent on God in prayer. We desire his glory above all things, and choose to enjoy the truth that he is in control as we bring our needs to him.
Passion for mission
We have hearts that overflow with joy in Jesus and, compelled by his love, long to share the goodness of the gospel. We want to inspire people of all generations to share the grace of Jesus Christ with people who have never heard of him.
Joyful engagement with God’s world
We value creativity and beauty as part of our calling as human beings, made in the image of God. We seek to value and transform homes, workplaces, culture and creation, living for God’s glory in our ordinary everyday lives.
Rooted in the local church
We celebrate the local church as the primary place for lifelong discipleship, and the beautiful bride for whom Christ died. We long to serve the local church, so that God’s people flourish in local fellowships across the UK and beyond.
